    The classic budget in Pattaya is 25k a month for food and rent, and another 25k for nightlife.
    So it’s about $1500 usd per month to have a fun life. (To achieve this you need a year contract)

    Honestly, I live in Bangkok and spend 1,300 USD, bear in mind I do not drink or smoke but I do live in a bubble-like area with everything you could need 1 min walk away. Dozens of restaurants, grocery, walking paths, other shopping, and some medical services. The street is about 40 minutes from the city center near a very nice small mall-like area.

      u sure this is enough to live a good lifestyle? how often do u eat out

    • @DerrickWeil
      @DerrickWeil 8 месяцев назад +2

      I eat out everyday, street food is cheap. What I spend may not be typical, though. I have been here for a while and found good cheap places to eat that I like and do not spend a lot on activities I like to walk around and explore, which is free. Where I live has a good gym and jogging track that is also free. Also I did not include my visa cost as I have a long term one I brought a few years back. Rent is the biggest expense and rent, internet, utilities, and cell are about 500, insurance is 60. That leaves me with 750 for everything else. I can have a coffee and pastry for breakfast and and rice and protein lunch for about $4 total. Then i can eat out at a restaurant for 200 baht for dinner which more then enough at a many restaurants on my area. Also I have a friend who wants to move out here, and I tell him 2000 to 2500 as you never know everyone has different life styles.

    • @allanwatts8361
      @allanwatts8361 8 месяцев назад

      wow, thank you for your insight! I see what you mean. Have you noticed that the food prices have gone up since the pandemic? When you say insurance, are you speaking of health insurance? Also, have you heard about the tax on foreigners that might be implemented in 2024? Lastly, is a motor bike rental cheap per day?@@DerrickWeil

    • @DerrickWeil
      @DerrickWeil 8 месяцев назад +1

      @@allanwatts8361 The tax law is not a law just a proposal and may be completely different next year if it even makes it to law. Yes inflation is global everywhere it cost more but still far cheaper in in most places in the west. Sht McDonald's cheaper meals are less then $3 where can be 15 to 20 in some American cities. As far as a bike I do not rent them driving in the city is not really safe unless you are used to it. Rates are 180 baht and up per day and that can very based on the type of bike and location also how long you rent it for. Bear in mind you should have proper insurance and a helmet also.

      @allanwatts8361 8 месяцев назад

      I see! seems like a lot of people are assuming the tax law is full set to be implemented..we'll have to see how this goes...but yea, thailand will always be cheaper regardless than the west! Inflation is out of control here...almost seems like homelessness is going to be the norm eventually in america lol From what ive seen in videos driving indeed appears chaotic.....thanks for your input on transportation and everything else, appreciate your time, very helpful bro!@@DerrickWeil

Last year, I lived in the Jomtien area for 6 months and my monthly budget was $3K and that's with companionship with a regular Thai lady for 3x a week and not buying any LDs and barfines. In my early 50's now and back to work in CA. Will do this again, next year.

    What are you paying per gram? I get Thai weed (as opposed to imported weed) for 500 Baht for a 30g brick... that's in Hua Hin but it will be the same in Pattaya.
    The stuff that's priced per gram in the tourist areas isn't what the locals will be smoking..
    *The Thai weed isn't anywhere near as strong but it's really nice for the $$
